 Let' see if buying puts is a scam.

 146 -- 353 ---- 483  -- gain 36% ($130)

 IMHO, OI is irrelevant.
 So, thumbs ups!

 CMG current $707.35
 Earnings after the close today.
 PUTS
 These options are very expensive (thousand$s, not hundred$s), so I will pick two and post them.
 
 1 Oct 23 $685 Put @ $1940
 1 Oct 23 $660 Put @ $1040

 Just "practice"
 I do not advocate buying $1,000$$+ options.
 That's ridiculous.

 Ohhhhh!  The calls are in the hundreds, but not the puts because CMG has already dropped $50 in a week.

 CMG....Trend is still strong, dip will be bought, this stock needs a good rinsing to peak my interest.
